ROCHESTER — Despite almost a foot of snow falling on the region Wednesday, PSNH reported no weather-related power outages in the Tri-City area on Wednesday afternoon.

Martin Murray, the PSNH media relations manager, noted the majority of the snow on Wednesday was not accompanied by heavy wind or ice.

In Rochester, Police Capt. Paul Toussaint said he was surprised to see zero vehicle accidents in Rochester by 2 p.m. Wednesday.

The day before the snow storm, Rochester declared a parking ban, which went into effect throughout the day on Wednesday, to allow the Public Works Department to remove the snow and clear the roads.

According to a statement released by Rochester police, public works crews were working diligently throughout Wednesday morning to keep the roads clear and safe, as the snow was falling about one to two inches per hour. Police also reminded drivers to slow down, and to not tailgate.

Amid the weather, a Rochester Police Commission meeting scheduled for Wednesday evening was postponed until next week, and Mel Flanagan’s pub postponed its Writers Night until a later date, which has not yet been announced.

In Lebanon, Maine, the transfer station closed Wednesday due to the weather.
